Availability

My schedule is very fluid and I get multiple breaks throughout the day, so there will be very little alone time for your dog, however, as a teacher and a coach I have some weekdays that are busier and your dog may be left in the home for 2.5 hour windows until I return from coaching. *currently on paternity leave and home all day*

I will ask you to provide any specifics in terms of pet care for your dog prior to having me pet-sit, unless there are no special requests. If no special requests are given, I take the dogs out about 4 times per day - twice for short bathroom trips, one short walk, and one extended walk. If the dog is older or lower energy I will adjust the extended walk to another short walk.

Information Tyler J. would like to know about your pet

Please be preemptive with any and all expectations you have for your dog. If there are any limitations or special accommodations, I need to know by the time you arrive. Food allergies or anything else as well.

A typical day

I love playing fetch, tug of war, walking the dogs both short and for extended periods of time. As a runner, I am also willing to bring more energetic dogs along with me if noted by the owner.

Pet care experience

Tyler and family were fantastic. Gracie loved her time with them. She was exhausted when she got home. Tyler was very responsive and professional and Gracie didn’t want to leave. I highly recommend Tyler!

Tyler provided a very welcoming indoor experience for my best friend along with a number of other dogs, quite the surprise.

I’ve known Tyler for 24 years now and for the entire time, even when we were kids, he’s been amazing with all of the dogs we’ve had around. He was especially helpful with our golden lab mixes Paulie and Mo, who were huge (100+ lbs), old (both made it to 14) and very energetic. Anytime we went on a trip or were away for the evening Tyler would come take care of the boys and they absolutely loved him, he did a terrific job and I’d trust him completely with any dog I get in the future.
